3​Rd​ Grade Unit 3 Mathematics rd 3 ​ Grade Unit 3 Mathematics ​ Dear Parents, The Mathematics Georgia Standards of Excellence (MGSE), present a balanced approach to mathematics that stresses understanding, fluency, and real world application equally. Know that your child is not learning math the way many of us did in school, so hopefully being more informed about this curriculum will assist you when you help your child at home. Below you will find the standards from Unit Three in bold print and underlined. Following each standard is an explanation with student examples. Please contact your child’s teacher if you have any questions. OA.1 Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 ​ × 7. This standard calls for students to understand the concept of multiplication. Students should recognize multiplication as a means to determine the total number of objects when there are a specific number of groups with the same number of objects in each group. Multiplication requires students to think in terms of groups of things rather than individual things. Students learn that the multiplication symbol “×” means “groups of” and problems such as 5 × 7 refer to 5 “groups of” 7. Example: Jim purchased 5 packages of muffins. Each package contained 3 muffins. How many muffins did Jim purchase? (5 groups of 3, 5 × 3 = 15 muffins) ​ OA.2 Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares (how many in each group?), or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 ÷ 8. This standard focuses on two distinct models of division: partition models and measurement models. Examples: ● Partition models focus on the question, “How many in each group?” There are 12 cookies on the counter. If you are sharing the cookies equally among three children, how many cookies will each child get? ● Measurement models focus on the question, “How many groups can you make?” There are 12 cookies on the counter. If each child gets 3 cookies, how many children can eat cookies? OA.3 Use multiplication and division within 100 to solve word problems in situations involving equal groups, arrays, and measurement quantities, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem. This standard references various strategies that can be used to solve word problems involving multiplication and division. Students should use a variety of representations for solving word problems. Examples of multiplication: ● A teacher had 4 rows in her classroom and put 6 desks in each row. How many desks are in her classroom? ▪ This problem can be solved by drawing an array (rectangular arrangement of equal rows and columns). The student can use this representation to solve the problem showing 4 rows with 6 in each row making a total of 24. ▪ This problem can also be solved by drawing pictures of 4 equal groups that contain 6 in each group. 4 groups of 6 equals 24 objects ▪ A student could also reason through the problem mentally by writing an equation. “I know that there are 4 rows with 6 in each row, and I need to know the total number of desks, so I can write the equation 4 x 6 = ___ to represent the problem. I know that 4 x 6 = 24, so there are 24 desks.” (Third grade students should use a variety of pictures, letters, or symbols, such as stars, boxes, flowers, etc. to represent unknown numbers.) ▪ A number line could also be used to show equal jumps. A student could skip-count to find that 4 jumps of 6 is 24. Examples of division: ● Partition Model Problem—finding the number in each group A bag has 36 hair clips. Laura and her three friends want to share them equally. How many hair clips will each person receive? ▪ This problem can be solved by drawing four groups and distributing 36 clips equally to each group. The student can use this representation to solve the problem showing that 4 groups would have 9 in each group for a total of 36. Each friend would receive 9 hairclips. ● Measurement Model Problem—finding the number of groups Max the monkey loves bananas. Molly, his trainer, has 24 bananas. If she gives Max 4 bananas each day, how many days will the bananas last? ▪ This problem can be solved by drawing a table and subtracting 4 from 24 until the student reaches 0. The student must subtract 4 a total of 6 times, so the bananas will last 6 days. Starting Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 24 24 – 4 = 20 – 4 = 16 – 4 = 12 – 4 = 8 – 4 = 4 – 4 = 20 16 12 8 4 0 OA.4 Determine the unknown whole number in a multiplication or division equation relating three whole numbers using the inverse relationship of multiplication and division. For example, determine the ​ unknown number that makes the equation true in each of the equations 8 × ? = 48, 5 = ? ÷ 3, 6 × 6 = ? This standard goes beyond the traditional notion of fact families. Students must explore the inverse relationship ​ ​ between multiplication and division. Example: If a student knows that 9 x 8 = 72, then they should also know that 72 ÷ 8 = 9. The standard also requires that students understand that the equal sign means ”the same as” and use this understanding to interpret an equation with an unknown. Example: When given 4 × ? = 32, they might think: ● 4 groups of some number is the same as 32. ● 4 times some number is the same as 32. ● I know that 4 groups of 8 is 32, so the unknown number is 8. ● The missing factor is 8 because 4 times 8 equals 32. OA.5 Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide. ****Primary focus on the commutative propery with mastered facts and distributive propery for 2s, 4s & 8s in this unit.**** Examples: ● If 6 × 4 = 24 is known, then 4 × 6 = 24 is also known. (Commutative property of multiplication) ● 3 × 5 × 2 can be found by 3 × 5 = 15, then 15 × 2 = 30, or by 5 × 2 = 10, then 3 × 10 = 30. (Associative property of multiplication) ● Knowing that 8 × 5 = 40 and 8 × 2 = 16, one can find 8 × 7 as 8 × (5 + 2) = (8 × 5) + (8 × 2) = 40 + 16 = 56. (Distributive property) This standard references properties of multiplication. While students DO NOT need to use the formal terms of these properties, students should understand that properties are rules about how numbers work. They need to be able to apply these properties flexibly and fluently. Students represent expressions using various objects, pictures, words, and symbols in order to develop their understanding of properties. They multiply by 1 and 0, and they divide by 1. They change the order of numbers to determine that the order of numbers does not make a difference in multiplication, but it does make a difference in division. Given three factors, they investigate changing the order of how they multiply the numbers to determine that changing the order does not change the product. They also decompose numbers to build fluency with multiplication. The associative property states that the sum or product stays the same when the grouping of addends or factors ​ ​ is changed. For example, when a student multiplies 7 × 5 × 2, a student could rearrange the numbers to first ​ ​ ​ ​ multiply 5 × 2 = 10 and then multiply 10 × 7 = 70. ​ ​ ​ ​ The commutative property (order property) states that the order of numbers does not matter when you are ​ ​ adding or multiplying numbers. For example, if a student knows that 5 × 4 = 20, then they also know that 4 × 5 ​ ​ ​ ​ = 20. Students are introduced to the distributive property of multiplication over addition as a strategy for using ​ ​ ​ ​ products they know to solve products they don’t know. Students would be using mental math to determine a product. Here are ways that students could use the distributive property to determine the product of 7 × 6. ​ ​ Again, students should use the distributive property, but can refer to this in informal language such as “breaking numbers apart”. Student 1 Student 2 Student 3 7 × 6 7 × 6 7 × 6 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ I know that 7 × 5 = 35 and I know 7 × 3 = 21. So, I can break 7 into 5 and 2. ​ ​ ​ ​ 7 × 1 = 7. So, 7 x 6 = 35 + since 6 is twice as much as I know 5 × 6 = 30 and ​ ​ ​ ​ 7 which is 42. 3, I can double 21 to get 2 × 6 = 12 and 30 + 12 = ​ ​ 42. 42. So, 7 x 6 = 42. Shown below is another example of how the distributive property helps students determine the products and ​ ​ factors of problems by breaking numbers apart. Example: In the problem 7 × 8 = ?, students can decompose the 7 into a 5 and 2, and reach the answer by ​ ​ multiplying 5 × 8 = 40 and 2 × 8 =16 and adding the two products (40 +16 = 56). ​ ​ ​ ​ OA.6 Understand division as an unknown-factor problem. Since multiplication and division are inverse operations, students are expected to solve problems and explain their processes of solving division problems that can also be represented as unknown factor multiplication problems. Example: A student knows that 2 x 9 = 18.

  • Determinants Math 122 Calculus III D Joyce, Fall 2012
    Determinants Math 122 Calculus III D Joyce, Fall 2012 What they are. A determinant is a value associated to a square array of numbers, that square array being called a square matrix. For example, here are determinants of a general 2 × 2 matrix and a general 3 × 3 matrix. a b = ad − bc: c d a b c d e f = aei + bfg + cdh − ceg − afh − bdi: g h i The determinant of a matrix A is usually denoted jAj or det (A). You can think of the rows of the determinant as being vectors. For the 3×3 matrix above, the vectors are u = (a; b; c), v = (d; e; f), and w = (g; h; i). Then the determinant is a value associated to n vectors in Rn. There's a general definition for n×n determinants. It's a particular signed sum of products of n entries in the matrix where each product is of one entry in each row and column. The two ways you can choose one entry in each row and column of the 2 × 2 matrix give you the two products ad and bc. There are six ways of chosing one entry in each row and column in a 3 × 3 matrix, and generally, there are n! ways in an n × n matrix. Thus, the determinant of a 4 × 4 matrix is the signed sum of 24, which is 4!, terms. In this general definition, half the terms are taken positively and half negatively. In class, we briefly saw how the signs are determined by permutations.

Desiderata Again, we review missing items in our development of linear algebra. We are missing a development of determinants of matrices whose entries may be in commutative rings, rather than fields. We would like an intrinsic definition of determinants of endomorphisms, rather than one that depends upon a choice of coordinates, even if we eventually prove that the determinant is independent of the coordinates. We anticipate that Artin's axiomatization of determinants of matrices should be mirrored in much of what we do here. We want a direct and natural proof of the Cayley-Hamilton theorem. Linear algebra over fields is insufficient, since the introduction of the indeterminate x in the definition of the characteristic polynomial takes us outside the class of vector spaces over fields. We want to give a conceptual proof for the uniqueness part of the structure theorem for finitely-generated modules over principal ideal domains. Multi-linear algebra over fields is surely insufficient for this. 417 418 Exterior powers 2. Definitions, uniqueness, existence Let R be a commutative ring with 1.

  • Essential Mathematics for Computer Graphics
    CSCI 315 • FALL 2013 ESSENTIAL MATHEMATICS • PAGE 1 Essential Mathematics for Computer Graphics This handout provides a compendium of the math that we will be using this semester. It does not provide a complete presentation of the topics, but instead just gives the "facts" that we will need. We will not cover most of this in class, so you may want to keep this nearby as a handy reference. Contents • Trigonometry • Polar Coordinates • 3-D Coordinate Systems • Parametric Representations • Points and Vectors • Matrices Trigonometry Let θ be an angle with its vertex at the origin and one side lying along the x-axis, and let (x,y) be any point in the Cartesian plane other than the origin, and on the other side of the angle. The six trigonometric functions are as follows: y (x,y) r θ x sin θ = y / r cos θ = x / r tan θ = y / x csc θ = r / y sec θ = r / x cot θ = x / y You may remember this as SOHCAHTOA (given the right triangle containing θ, sin = opposite/hypotenuse, cos = adjacent/hypotenuse, tan = opposite/adjacent). Angles can be specified in degrees or radians. One radian is defined as the measure of the angle subtended by an arc of a circle whose length is equal to the radius of the circle. Since the full circumference of a circle is 2πr, it takes 2π radians to get all the way around the circle, so 2π radians is equal to 360°. 1 radian = 180/π ~= 57.296° 1° = π/180 radian ~= 0.017453 radian Note that OpenGL expects angles to be in degrees.

  • 4 Exterior Algebra
    4 Exterior algebra 4.1 Lines and 2-vectors The time has come now to develop some new linear algebra in order to handle the space of lines in a projective space P (V ). In the projective plane we have seen that duality can deal with this but lines in higher dimensional spaces behave differently. From the point of view of linear algebra we are looking at 2-dimensional vector sub- spaces U ⊂ V . To motivate what we shall do, consider how in Euclidean geometry we describe a 2-dimensional subspace of R3. We could describe it through its unit normal n, which is also parallel to u×v where u and v are linearly independent vectors in the space and u×v is the vector cross product. The vector product has the following properties: • u×v = −v×u • (λ1u1 + λ2u2)×v = λ1u1×v + λ2u2×v We shall generalize these properties to vectors in any vector space V – the difference is that the product will not be a vector in V , but will lie in another associated vector space. Definition 12 An alternating bilinear form on a vector space V is a map B : V × V → F such that • B(v, w) = −B(w, v) • B(λ1v1 + λ2v2, w) = λ1B(v1, w) + λ2B(v2, w) This is the skew-symmetric version of the symmetric bilinear forms we used to define quadrics. Given a basis {v1, . , vn}, B is uniquely determined by the skew symmetric matrix B(vi, vj). We can add alternating forms and multiply by scalars so they form a vector space, isomorphic to the space of skew-symmetric n × n matrices.

  • An Index Notation for Tensor Products
    APPENDIX 6 An Index Notation for Tensor Products 1. Bases for Vector Spaces Consider an identity matrix of order N, which can be written as follows: 1 0 0 e1 0 1 · · · 0 e2 (1) [ e1 e2 eN ] = . ·.· · . = . . · · · . .. 0 0 1 eN · · · On the LHS, the matrix is expressed as a collection of column vectors, denoted by ei; i = 1, 2, . , N, which form the basis of an ordinary N-dimensional Eu- clidean space, which is the primal space. On the RHS, the matrix is expressed as a collection of row vectors ej; j = 1, 2, . , N, which form the basis of the conjugate dual space. The basis vectors can be used in specifying arbitrary vectors in both spaces. In the primal space, there is the column vector (2) a = aiei = (aiei), i X and in the dual space, there is the row vector j j (3) b0 = bje = (bje ). j X Here, on the RHS, there is a notation that replaces the summation signs by parentheses. When a basis vector is enclosed by pathentheses, summations are to be taken in respect of the index or indices that it carries. Usually, such an index will be associated with a scalar element that will also be found within the parentheses. The advantage of this notation will become apparent at a later stage, when the summations are over several indices. A vector in the primary space can be converted to a vector in the conjugate i dual space and vice versa by the operation of transposition. Thus a0 = (aie ) i is formed via the conversion ei e whereas b = (bjej) is formed via the conversion ej e .

Identity Property (multiplication by one) 3 x 1 = 3 and 1 x 3 = 3 The product (result) is the same as the original amount. 2. Commutative Property 3 x 2 = 6 2 x 3 = 6 The product is the same regardless of the order of the numbers. 3. Associative Property 3 x 2 x 4 = ? (3 x 2) x 4 = 6 x 4 = 24 and 3 x (2 x 4) = 3 x 8 = 24 The product is the same regardless of the order the numbers are multiplied. 4. Distributive Property 7 x 9 is the same as 5 x 9 + 2 x 9 The product is the same as the sum of the partial products. Using known multiplication facts and applying the multiplication properties can help determine other multiplication facts. • For 7 x 9, 7 is decomposed into 5 and 2. The multiplication facts 5 x 9 and 2 x 9 are then added together to determine the final product.

  • Study Link Help: Multiplying Decimals
    Everyday Mathematics SCHOOL MATHEMATICS PROJECT Study Link Help: Multiplying Decimals Multiplying Decimals One of the most common errors students make when multiplying decimals is misplacing the decimal point. To help prevent this error, Everyday Mathematics encourages students to start by making an estimate. Determining a reasonable answer before multiplying usually prevents this error. Help with Study Link Problems Children are encouraged to make estimates first. They can multiply decimal numbers using whole number methods that they are familiar with and then identify where the decimal point belongs based on their estimate. Using Reasonable Estimates Make a reasonable estimate for the product. Multiply the factors as though they were whole numbers (ignore the decimal points) Use the original estimate to place the decimal point in the product. Example: 34.5 × 20.5 Think: 2 times 35 would be 70, so 20 times 35 would be 700. A reasonable estimate of the answer is 700. Multiply: 345 In this × 205 example, 200 × 300 60000 the partial- products 200 × 40 8000 method is used 200 × 5 1000 to multiply the two numbers. 5 × 300 1500 5 × 40 200 5 × 5 +25 70725 Since the original estimate was 700, the answer must be 707.25. 34.5 × 20.5=707.25 Here is another way your child might solve the problem that may look more familiar to you.

  • Product Formulas for Measures and Applications to Analysis and Geometry
    Product Formulas for Measures and Applications to Analysis and Geometry Peter Jones Mathematics Department, Yale University “SLE(4)” The Volume as Multifractal Measure (“Burstiness”): How to Best Represent This Measure? The Product Formula • Theorem (F,K,P): A Borel probability measure μ on [0,1] has a unique representation as ∏(1 + aI hI) , where the coefficients aI are in [-1,+1]. Conversely, if we choose any sequence of coefficients aI in [-1,+1], the resulting product is a Borel probability measure on [0,1]. Note: For general positive measures, just multiply by a constant. Similar result on [0,1]d. (For d > 1 there are choices for the representations.) Note: See “The Theory of Weights and the Dirichlet Problem for Elliptic Equations” by R. Fefferman, C. Kenig, and J.Pipher (Annals of Math., 1991) Some Haar-like functions on [0,1] “The Theory of Weights and the Dirichlet Problem for Elliptic Equations” by R. Fefferman, C. Kenig, and J.Pipher (Annals of ∞ Math., 1991). We first define the “L normalized Haar function” hI for an interval I of form [j2-n,(j+1)2-n] to be of form -n -n hI = -1 on [j2 ,(j+1/2)2 ) and -n -n hI = +1 on [(j+1/2)2 ,(j+1)2 ). The only exception to this rule is if the right hand endpoint of I is 1. Then we define hI (1) = +1. Relative Measure The coefficients aI are computed simply by computing relative measure (“volume”) on the two halves of each interval I. Let L and R = left (resp.
